Overview
Ring is the Amazon-owned home security company known for its video doorbells. It started in a garage with a single video doorbell, and Amazon acquired it in 2018. In November 2026 Ring launched Ring Robotics, a line of autonomous security devices that began with the Ring Drone Cam, an indoor flying security camera for homes, and the Ring Rover Cam, a security robot for businesses that patrols autonomously.

Ring Rover Cam
The Ring Rover Cam is an indoor security robot for businesses from Amazon's Ring that repurposes Amazon's Astro home robot. It maps a single-floor space on its own, suggests patrol points, runs scheduled patrols, goes to any room or saved patrol point on demand, and checks its programmed patrol points automatically when a connected Ring device is triggered. An adjustable mast lets it see over counters and shelving, and it records up to 4K video while moving or patrolling. It has a siren, a light tower, two-way audio and infrared night vision, and Ring says one unit covers up to 5,000 square feet.
Previous platform
Ring Always Home Cam
The Ring Always Home Cam was Ring's first indoor security drone, announced on September 24, 2020 at a planned price of $249. It flew user-set paths through the home, could not be flown manually, flew a set path automatically when Ring Alarm was triggered, and sat in a base that physically blocked its camera when docked. Ring later made it available through an invitation-only request system, but it saw only a very limited release. Ring redesigned it several times, and the Ring Drone Cam announced in November 2026 is its successor.
Current platform
Ring Drone Cam
The Ring Drone Cam is a small indoor flying security camera from Amazon's Ring. It rests in a charging dock with its camera off, then flies preset routes on a schedule, on demand from the Ring app, or automatically to set patrol points when a connected Ring camera, sensor or alarm is triggered. Ring's AI Pilot system turns a walk-through of the home into a floor plan, suggests patrol points, plans routes and steers around obstacles. The drone records 2K video, uses LED spotlights rather than infrared in dark rooms, and flies for up to 8 minutes before returning to its dock. It cannot be flown manually and is for indoor use only. It is the redesigned successor to the Always Home Cam that Ring first showed in 2020.
